Airborne Laser (X) Mission: Korea is the
story of great historical forces put into motion by the
selfless nationalistic love of a man for his people, and a
USAF officer who is realistic about how great forces can go
wrong. From the no-nonsense offices of the devoted men and
women high over the River Entrance of the E-Ring in the
Pentagon, to the somber corridors of North Korea's Ministry
of the Peoples Armed Forces, to the intense men and women of
the sophisticated compounds of the Air Force Research
Laboratory-this is a story stretching across time and the
world. It reaches from the spotless, wide, yet empty
boulevards of Pyongyang, to the modern bustling colorful
streets of Seoul and from the rugged desert laboratories of
New Mexico, to the missile silos and nuclear reactors of
North Korea. It delves into the past; reaching to the edges
of human memory of the atrocities of war, while also moving
into the future where human imagination tries to envision a
path forward without armed conflict. Airborne Laser (X)
Mission: Korea takes the reader inside the minds and hearts
of the players in a globe-spanning tale of power,
fratricide, hatred, ancient wrongs, technology, revenge-and
ultimately redemption and unification.
